[The flight behavior of hand grenade fragments and their shock-producing effect on the human].

Systemic affects by multiple hits of corpuscular material are not seen until a level of ergy about 600-800 J is reached. A major determinant is the sum of energy. A potentiating effect could not be observed.

Systematic investigation of degradation effects on spin-lattice relaxation times in mouse-liver by low resolution NMR.

In spite of numerous work on in vitro proton relaxation time investigations of biological tissue, many questions still remain open. In this study we focused on spin-lattice (T1) relaxation time measurements of mouse liver tissue in order to estimate the time-after-excision effects. The post mortem behaviour of excised tissue was measured up to four hours in intervals of about nine minutes.

Systematic investigation of degradation effects on spin-spin relaxation times in mouse-liver by low resolution NMR.

Despite numerous work on spin-lattice (T1) relaxation in vitro, not much attention has been paid on spin-spin (T2) relaxation until now. In this study we are presenting spin-spin relaxation time measurements of mouse liver tissue in order to estimate the time-after-excision effects. The post mortem behaviour of excised tissue was investigated up to four hours in intervals of about nine minutes.

Influence of some uremic toxins on oxygen consumption of rats in vivo and in vitro.

According to our present knowledge hypometabolism and hypothermia in uremia are most probably due to direct actions of toxic substances at the cellular level. A cardiovascular etiology seems less possible. A similar reduction of oxygen consumption as observed in uremia can be produced by 5 mg/kg body wt.
